Large stock of shrink tubing!
KACAB was founded in 1993 and we have specialized in the sale of heat shrink tubing, we have solid knowledge and a large stock. We are today one of Sweden’s most complete companies in the industry. We also offer the market’s widest and best product range of shrink tubing, molded goods, protective tubing and cable ties.
Through close collaboration with our suppliers, our product development is constantly adapted, e.g. to the wishes of the industry. With the help of the latest technology from our suppliers in the planning and production stages (R&D), the time to adapt our products to a ready-to-assemble product is minimized. Contact us as we have a large stock of heat shrink tubing.
Our large stock of heat shrink tubing is available in a wide variety of materials that are developed to operate in temperatures between -75°C and +260°C at constant operating temperature. The hoses can be thin-, medium- or thick-walled and are also supplied with or without a glued inside. All standard heat shrink tubes are consequently flame retardant or self-extinguishing. They have a shrinkage capacity from 2: 1 and up to 6: 1 and can be delivered in a variety of colors and sizes (0.6 mm – 1500 mm). Our heat shrink range from economical to high tech, they are UL224/CSA approved and specified to a variety of MIL standards.
Large stock and product quality are our keywords
All our products meet or exceed all approvals / environmental requirements such as RoHS and REACH, and where applicable, UL, Mil, ASTM, VDE and Cenelec HD623 (for “LV joints kits”). Contact KACAB, we have a large stock of shrink tubing.
What is Heat Shrink Tubing?
Shrink tubing is a special type of plastic tube whose diameter shrinks when heated. Heat shrink tubing is used to insulate wires and protect them from abrasion. The application of heat is done with a heat gun. There is shrink tubing with or without glue, where the glue in addition to attaching to the cable sheath and conductor also seals extra. The shrink tubing is divided into shrinkage conditions, ie how much the diameter of the hose can shrink to a maximum when heat is applied. The most common ratios are between 2:1 to 6:1. The larger the shrink ratio of a shrink tube, the larger the uneven application it can be shaped around. The wall thickness and diameter change when you shrink a shrink tubing.
Select the correct tubing
Initially, when using heat shrink tubing, keep in mind that the choice of heat shrink tubing affects the conditions of the application. The ambient temperature, the desired degree of shrinkage and whether the shrink tubing should be adhesive-coated or not are some issues that affect the choice of heat shrink tubing.
From this, we have compiled the following questions that facilitate the selection of heat shrink tubing up to 1000V.
